Most medical and travel insurance policies explicitly exclude cover for planned procedures abroad. In the case of medical insurance, it may be allowed if approved in advance which would typically only happen if you can convince them that the procedure is medically necessary and that the equivalent procedure or expertise is not available in this country.
